While the main improvements are listed as improved speed, security fixes and mathml ..... the biggest problem remains that it (as with the previous two versions) crashes on launch under Snow Leopard

So, despite listing that the rqmts are for OS X 10.6 or greater / Intel ..... I guess that the days of it supporting 10.6 are over. Would someone at SRWare please comment about this. This is the third time I've downloaded a version, only to find that I have to remove it an reinstall version 21.0.1200.0.

Now that SRWare Iron is no longer support on Snow Leopard, you can run Chromium which DOES support Snow Leopard. I recommend using a Chromium installation & update tool called Chromatic. You can download it here: http://mrgeckosmedia.com/applications/info/Chromatic

What Chromatic will do is keep your Chromium installation up-to-date for you. You will need to manage the privacy settings yourself, but once set they shouldn't change. Go to your Chromium settings:(1) Make sure you do not automatically "Sign In" to Chromium with any Google accounts.(2) Turn off "Omnibox" under the Search setting. (3) Change from using Google for search to Ixquick. https://www.ixquick.com/(4) Under "Advanced Settings" click the "Content Settings" and set your cookie preferences(5) Uncheck all 5 boxes under the "Privacy Settings" in "Advanced Settings".(6) Install the Ghostery extension: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/search-extensions/ghostery(7) Install the Adblock etension: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/search-extensions/adblock

Its too bad SRWare has dropped support for Snow Leopard, but we do have other options. Using Chromium/Chromatic is one of them.

Many thanks to SRWare for giving us Iron. We loved it while it lasted.

Iron v 24.0.1350.0 is working fine on OSX 10.8.2. However, I had to change the method I use to get flash installed. I only use the flash plugin through iron on my mac. I prefer not to have any other apps have access to flash, including Safari. I used to use Google Chrome as a way to keep flash up to date, then copy the flash plugin from chrome to iron. This stopped working when Chrome changed to pepper flash.

What I eventually learned is that you can rename the PepperFlashPlayer.plugin, used in Chrome to: Flash Player Plugin for Chrome.plugin and it will work in iron. But you can also download the flash plugin directly from adobe and remove Chrome from your system.

Here is a process to install the flash plugin into iron without having flash available to other programs on your system.
